Fuji X-E1/X-E2/X-E2S/X-E3 Owners Thread

Back to my usual photo haunt along the river, still haven't managed to prise the ghetto-elmar from the front of the X-E2..


X-E2, Minolta MD 35-70/3.5 macro

Nicely done! That Minolta has a bit of a rep ;)

It deserves the reputation. For a sub-£50 lens it's pretty special. Definitely one I'd recommend.
 
Nothing I can of will allow the thumb grip and a flash. Unlike the -pro1 the -e2 doesn't have the PC synch port.
 
Karen if you had more to grip onto (at the front) would you need a thumb rest??

I have a couple of these and find no need to have a thumbrest/grip. They can be put on very easily and allow access to battery compartment and card slot. Would free up the hotshoe when you need it.

+1 for the Neewer L-plate (make sure you don't pay to much, the *same* grip is listed at £25 and £125), but I still use my thumb rest with it on the -E2
 
That image I like very much Jeff, and the PP really works well.(y)

George.

Fuji Rumours are reporting that the big firmware update for the x-e2 will now come in around six months time. Makes sense I guess, in order not to impact upon x-t10 sales.

Patrick has a very poor (aka appalling) track record when it comes to predicting when something will happen (the -Pro2 should have been out over a year ago according to his timings).. he says 6 months, elsewhere says September, best guess is some time between tomorrow and never.. :D

(Edit, got my months muddled)

Yep. Need a home for the 23 so i thought I'd give one a go.

Heard that the original Fuji sensors produce better skin tones so i thought this would be the cheapest way to find out.
